Road Kill Lyrics by Rickie Lee Jones

Road Kill Lyrics

    What's the matter with it? why's it look that way?
    What's the matter with it? what's it trying to say?
    What's that on its back? where's it trying to go?
    A mystical vision got dressed up one night
    Locked the door, walked through the misty porch light
    Headed over to somebody's house
    For an occasion long awaited
    As it crossed the road, vista del mar
    A big red car
    Big black tires, nice corvette
    And the future has not arrived yet
    Moonlight on the hill, lights up the road kill
    Moonlight on the hill, and the future is a road kill
    What's the matter with it? what's it trying to say?
    What's the matter with it? I just saw it yesterday
    The police came, the neighbors too
    They tried to pick it up, what else can you do?
    Meanwhile, somebody's waiting back at the house
    For the future to dawn bright across the sky
    Moonlight on the hill, lights up the road kill
    Moonlight on the hill, lights up the future
    What's the matter with it? what's it trying to say?
    What's the matter with it? why won't it go away?
    What's the matter with it? why won't it close its eyes?
    What's the matter with it? who are those guys? what's the matter with it...
